    Welcome Tony

    Hope you enjoy the company

    I think Alan is referring to Mario Lanza as the famous name

    There’s quite a few here that did things the old way.

    I still look in awe at the way the plotter with pen draws a template out and I imagine the length of time it would have normally taken me to do by hand

    Look forward to your posts

    Have you any funny or amusing experiences over the years?

    John

    Hi Tony.
    I’m old-school myself, self-taught, been painting signs 19 years,
    but I did get a Gerber System in 1998, and taught myself that too!
    Now I do both.
    Welcome aboard….this is a nice place to visit!
    Love….Jill
